Top 10 Snafus to avoid when building a good rig

The number one SNAFU to avoid, is buying into the Tenets of high-end audio. Once you do that, you are already lost.

AMCE 'Black Widow' run don't walk, and fast.

'Exactly why hi-end audio is so difficult and frustrating. You can spend $20k for and amp and still be suffering from trade-offs.'
